You can type in the terminal:
guix install gnome-calendar
This should become part of guix’ gnome package. That it is missing is
a bug.
Some core applications have not been packaged yet, but alternatives
have been packaged already, e.g. when entering
guix search photos | less
you can see that shotwell is packaged, even though gnome-photos is
not.

Florian
